About Our History

Our law practice was founded more than 30 years ago in 1984 by the late Mr Alec Crowther Fergusson, a British solicitor from London. Alec came to Singapore in 1958 to join the law firm Drew & Napier, and remained with them for over 25 years as a corporate lawyer.

In 1984 Alec left Drew & Napier where he was a Senior Partner to start his own litigation firm under the style of his name.  In 1996, Mrs Alice Tan joined him and the firm became a partnership in 1997 called A.C. Fergusson & Partners.  Alec passed away on March 26, 2000, and Mrs Alice Tan now heads the Firm, taking on partners and paralegals.

Since July 2012, the Firm became a Law Corporation with Mrs Alice Tan Goh as director, working with legal associates, graduate interns and a consultant.

Now in operation for more than 30 years, the Corporation is engaged in six core areas of business, namely Personal Law (Family Law including Adoption, Divorces, Wills and Estate matters)  Conveyancing, Civil Litigation, Commercial Law, and Corporate Work & Secretarial Practice.

Together, the lawyers run the practice efficiently with dedication and compassion, and carry out pro bono work in both civil and criminal areas.
